Be carefull with buying a second hand Prinect / MetaDimension Shooter. The shooter must exactly fit to your Suprasetter. Heidelberg changed the Suprasetter technical specifications several times since the release of the machine over ten years ago.

You won't believe it, there are new SDP-Eco 1630 IIIRz devices existing in Japan equipped with a current SDP-RIP v13 on sale by Mitsubishi Distributor Diamic. Ask Mitsubishi Imaging near NYC, if they sell these devices in the U.S.
Here in Europe Distributor Atécé is even selling the...
@masterpc
mention that Presspercent is a MAC-only application, but it is easy to integrate in your workflow and offers hotfolders for each setup. It can be installed via Teamviewer and comes with a softkey. Contact me directly for further details and pricing.

Hi Jacek,
in PressPerCent there are several setup parameters to adjust the ink zone information to your specific press. The basic settings of PPC are often "too weak" and only open the ink keys very insufficiently. In the attached screenshots you can see the menu windows for "Zones Curves", "Ink...
PPC and PressProfiler are both based on the Excourse PressPerCent. PressProfiler offers just a little more ease of use and runs on a Windows PC. In the meantime, both also get along well with PDF jobs with spot colors. The current PPC v3.64 has the option of Ghostscript integration for PDF...
The different firmware of the two devices is the issue. The P9000 firmware can't work with the x-rite ILS20 of the SP9900 chassis. You have to replace the ILS20 with an ILS30 and then it will work.
Hi Dario,
if you want to know, can ProofMaster generate screened proofs? The answer is no, but you will get perfect certified color proofs according to Ugra/Fogra ISO-Standards & CxF-based Spot color proofing.
My recommendation for screened proofs incl. Spot colors is StudioRIP XF Inkjet...
Your old Ink Volume Setter Windows XP/Server no longer works properly or the system becomes a network security risk?
Simply generate the required Ryobi Demia data (.DEM) for your PCS-G/PCS-H system on a current Windows 10/11 PC system. StudioRIP XF 4.2 SE+ with the Ink Duct Control Plugin is...
Hi rudym88,
unfortunately, I am not an expert on the alfaQuest Panther platesetters, but I can confirm that the devices were supported up to the Navigator RIP v10 with their own device plug-in (32-bit).
It means that after the Navigator RIP installation, the associated Panther plug-in will be...
Hi polyester printers,
for a customer with an older Mitsubishi SDP-Eco 1630 polyester platesetter I need the SDP-RIP v6 (branded Harlequin RIP) installation files (copy of the SDP-RIP v6 CD-ROM).
Check it out, maybe it's still lying around somewhere.
Thanks in advance !
There are no curves applied to the Jobs coming in the CIP3 workflow. It is usually not necessary. Some of my customers attach the plate curves for the CIP3 workflow too. The difference for your press inkzones is very little.
@4sight
you are not mistaken and it seems to be configured right, like a spoolfolder "cascade". Take care that all involved spoolfolders are "idle" and "enabled" . Then all jobs are running two times through the output controller.
Hi Darren,
you are completely right with the end of UV plates. Agfa wants to sell the whole offset plate business to another company. The Belgian newspaper DeTijd wrote about it some days ago:

@ctptech
Hi Darren,
Lucky Huaguang has a European subsidiary in Willich near Düsseldorf. Please contact the managing director Mr. Yong Zheng. He is a friendly guy. He may also be selling the older type of UV plates (e.g. UV-PH with sensitivity: 40 - 55 mJ) in the U.K.
